Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line a 9 inch square pan with parchment paper. Set aside.

In a large bowl or stand mixer, make shortbread by combining the almond flour, coconut flour, coconut oil, maple syrup, MuscleEgg and salt. Mix until well combined.

Press 3/4 of the dough into the bottom of the pan and save the remaining 1/4 in a small bowl for the topping.

Bake shortbread for 12-14 minutes until lightly browned on edges.

Make the apple layer while shortbread is baking. Add apples, apple pie spice, cinnamon, and salt to a small pot set to low-medium heat. Stir to combine.

Stir in the maple syrup and cook for 5-7 minutes until apples are slightly softened.

Add 1-2 tablespoons of water if needed to prevent mixture from burning.
